Leeds team announced second person to be given an honour (6)
I believe the answer is:
united
'leeds team' is the definition.
(soccer team Leeds United)
'person to be given an honour' is the wordplay.
'person' becomes 'Ted' (Ted is an example).
'to' says to put letters next to each other (I've seen this in other clues).
'be given an honour' becomes 'uni' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'ted' after 'uni' is 'UNITED'.
'announced second' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.
(Other definitions for united that I've seen before include "Of one mind" , "Joined - football club" , "Joined in marriage" , "Brought or joined together" , "Untied (anag.)" .)
